  • The new problem in Nigeria now new generation of Pastor that brainwashed the people, promised illusion of prosperity if the accept christ in their life. But still people deep and deeper in poverty and ignorance. If you colonised people you take away everything from them, mind,identity,pride and soul. Nigerian Politician prefer to buy luxury house in London then investing that money in Nigeria. The problem is enslaving mind. We need revolution in that country, that is only solution.

  • His wives sure are beautiful women!!

  • @ebeledi That is so true. The same thing happened to enslaved people in the dispora. Really sad.

  • @lettysef he had a lot of non-yoruba wives

  • thanks great. Fela BABA.

  • i love how the wives are puffing their spliff...beautiful ...classic

  • I LOVE FELA

  • Fela was a bonafide leader...way ahead of his time...to bad african leaders today are white washed in mental enslavement. If leaders thought like fela why would africa be in the position it is today...i hate to see nigerian judges wearing british wigs as if its their roots. thats the problem w/ africa being forced to structure its government with forign influences, and false countries created by europeans.

  • Those are pretty Yoruba women  ;)

  • i agree 100%...oshe jare

  • where are all those women baba got married to? i luv to emulate that aswel..

  • babaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaa....R.I.P..BLACK PRESIDENT!!
